Here are a few scenes from my weekend, including low-lying cloud on the hills behind our house and a new little succulent garden I planted in an empty spot behind our house. A poppy is growing there- I can't wait to see its face.
I was in the supermarket on Saturday when I saw an old man, dressed in (I think) dusty road worker's gear, in the baking section. I was looking for dried fruit, and he was carefully studying the boxes of instant cake mixtures. At last he selected a packet of chocolate cake mix and shuffled over to the checkout with it. I surprised myself by being overwhelmed with the desire to bake him a chocolate cake. But when I went to ask him for his address, he had gone.
When I got home I made some of these cookies instead.
